Chapter 111: Retreat to Jianye
The black fog in front of the Cefu cavalry camp was obviously Jiuli's means again. In addition to a group of elders who were good at martial arts, Jiuli also came a senior elder of the academy who was good at weird formations. This layer of black fog is Qianxi's means. After learning that Ye Zheng and the dirty clothes Daoren had left the Cefu military camp, Gao Huan immediately integrated the white horse cavalry and prepared to rush over, while Qianxi expressed his willingness to help for a while.
Qianxi came to the front of the military formation, observed the surroundings, and quickly flew out a number of black tokens around, and suddenly the sand flew around, and a large amount of black mist poured out of the black tokens, which instantly spread to the military camp of Cefu.
This situation suddenly made Mo Buyu and Mo Liu a little at a loss, and they hurriedly ordered the whole army to be on guard. Immediately afterwards, Gao Huan led a group of white horse cavalry to attack. The cavalry brigade passed through the black fog and rushed straight into the military camp of Cefu.
Mo Buyu saw that the white horse cavalry was strong, and the black fog had been spreading, so he immediately ordered the whole army to withdraw for a while and then make plans. The sergeant of Cefu listened to the order and retreated in an orderly manner, and after Mo Liu led the people to break off, Mo Buyu led the cavalry and the ten days of the sergeant to retreat first.
The army quickly retreated, and after walking for a while, they encountered Ye Zheng and the dirty clothes Taoist. After hearing about the battle situation ahead, Ye Zheng did not hesitate to ask the sergeants to immediately withdraw to Jianye City.
There are white horse cavalry in front, and Jiuli Hengnu brought by wind evil in the back. Ye Zheng, the dirty clothes Taoist, and Mo Buyu opened the way and rushed towards the wind evil gang. This time there were many cavalry, and the wind evil did not dare to stop it rashly, so the people of Cefu quickly rushed out and went straight to Jianye.
After Mo Liu's break, he and a team of cavalry blocked the Gao family in White Horse City, and the two sides rushed to kill a few formations, Mo Liu estimated that Mo Buyu should have left, and ordered the whole team to retreat quickly before the White Horse cavalry was about to be encircled. Gao Huan set his eyes on Mo Liu before leading the team to attack, and when he saw that he wanted to take people away, he hurriedly let the white horse cavalry rush forward desperately, and he couldn't let Mo Liu go.
The white horse cavalry rushed very fast, Mo Liu saw this, struggled to shake off the entangled cavalry, pulled the reins, beckoned the surrounding sergeants, turned around and left. Gao Huan did not give up and chased after him personally.
Gao Huan's white horse was extremely fast, and it didn't take long for him to throw off the group, and he rode forward and chased after Mo Liu.
Mo Liu saw that Gao Huan was getting closer and closer, and he deliberately slowed down a little, intending to make the head of the Gao family suffer a loss.
Gao Huan quickly caught up with Mo Liu, Mo Liu turned sideways and saw Gao Huan catching up from his right side, and several officers of the White Horse Cavalry behind him were frantically chasing, for fear that something would happen to the head of the family. Mo Liu grabbed the reins with one hand, and the short knife was already pinched in the other.
The distance between the two was getting closer and closer, and Gao Huan's silver spear shook and stabbed Mo Liu's vest. Mo Liu did not hesitate, on the side of his body, dodged the silver gun, and the whole person lay on the horse's back, and two short knives flew out of his right hand one after another. In front of Gao Huan's horizontal spear, he picked up the first short knife, but the second knife was extremely powerful, and it slashed through the body of the spear at once, stabbing at Gao Huan's silver-white breastplate. Gao Huan was startled, it was too late to return the gun, so he had to quickly lean back to avoid the short knife. The short knife flew away, and when it swept past the front door, Gao Huan suddenly felt a tingling pain in the left side of his face. When he sat up, he touched it with his hand, and a large patch of blood ran down his cheek. Gao Huan was furious, he had always paid attention to appearance, and if he was scratched on the left side of his face at this moment, he would inevitably leave a scar. This made him unacceptable, and the whole person was almost crazy. Looking at Mo Liu again, Mo Liu is not in love with war, after he threw out the short knife, he immediately rode his horse and galloped away, and when he heard Gao Huan roaring behind him, he turned his head back and saw half of the head of the Gao family with a bloody face, Mo Liu sneered.
Several officers of the White Horse Cavalry had already caught up with Gao Huan and hurriedly stepped forward to check on the situation of the head of the family. When everyone saw Gao Huan's appearance, they were all cautious and didn't dare to say more.
Gao Huan was furious, he ordered the military doctor to come over, quickly help him treat his wounds, and at the same time shouted to the cavalry officer beside him: "Chase, chase, kill the whole army, and catch the kid with the double knife for me." ”
The white-horse cavalry all tried their best to chase after them. Mo Liuhe and the sergeant stepped up and withdrew.
The two armies chased and rushed towards Jianye City, and Xuan Dong learned that the white horse cavalry had broken through the defense line of Cefu, and immediately ordered people to strengthen the city gate and build fortifications. After the cavalry of Cefu withdrew, the city was immediately sealed.
When Emperor Wen learned that the white horse cavalry was coming, he felt that the situation was serious, so he called Xuan Dong, Zhang Jue, and Chen Yinuo to discuss countermeasures against the enemy, and Xuan Dong simply told Emperor Wen that the government would hold the city. Zhang Jue didn't say a word on the side, and after Xuan Dong and Chen Yinuo left, he stepped forward and whispered to Emperor Wen: "Your Majesty, don't panic, the White Horse Cavalry is not a threat, but a help from us." Emperor Wen glared at Zhang Jue, and asked in some surprise: "The White Horse Cavalry is your man?" ”
"Not exactly, it's just collaboration." Zhang Jue replied with a slight smile.
"I can't imagine that you have planted forces in various countries." Emperor Wen was surprised, and secretly worried in his heart, he thought that after Jianye was recovered, he should be able to eradicate these Jiuli people quickly with the forces of Dongyue, but when he heard that the white horse cavalry on the Beibang military list also cooperated with Jiuli, he had to reconsider what happened in the future.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, they are all cooperative, each taking what he needs, and it is okay to give up some interests for the time being." Zhang Jue said it extremely quietly, but Emperor Wen heard it coldly.
Emperor Wen pondered for a moment, and then asked Xiang Zhangjue: "What are you going to do?" ”
"Your Majesty, don't worry, there are my Jiuli masters in the White Horse Cavalry Army, and after the cavalry enters the city, I will definitely come to see Your Majesty in person." Zhang Jue said extremely respectfully.
"What? The white-horse cavalry is going to enter the city? The Xuanjia army in Jianye City has not been eliminated, and the cavalry of Northern Qin will be allowed to come in. Emperor Wen was furious and roared at Zhang Jue.
Zhang Jue was not angry, he smiled coldly, and then said: "The white horse cavalry enters the city, destroys the Xuanjia army, and at the same time contains the Cefu and helps His Majesty to return to the Fengtian Palace, they will naturally leave." ”
"Don't think about it, if the Northern Qin Tiger and Wolf Division is allowed to enter the city, how can they withdraw, I will immediately order the Ce Mansion to attack and defeat these Northern Qin thieves." Emperor Wen said that, he was ready to call someone to call Xuan Dong.
Zhang Jue took a step forward and stopped Emperor Wen, his eyes revealed a trace of coldness, and his tone also changed: "I'm afraid that the Cefu may not necessarily listen to Your Majesty, otherwise it would not have allowed the Xuanjia Army to guard the palace for so many days." ”
Emperor Wen listened to Zhang Jue's words, he was slightly stunned, in fact, the current situation, he knew very well in his heart, Cefu Xuandong disobeyed several times, obviously had his own plans, but he didn't know why, Liu Yanzheng and Xiao Cheng have also been staying in the Cefu army, and most of them are also standing on the side with Xuantong. The East Vietnamese army controlled by Zhang Jue fought against the Xuanjia Army several times, and it was also extremely seriously consumed, and the other three elite legions of East Vietnam, the Jinfan Army were listed as rebels by themselves, and the Agni Army and the Three Mountains Army never appeared, and it is estimated that they are also at war with the rest of the countries. He really didn't have any available military strength in his hands, and after a period of silence, Emperor Wen slowly spoke: "What do you and the Gao family want?" ”
"Your Majesty is too worried, someone in the clan will come to discuss with Your Majesty in person later, as long as Your Majesty cooperates, you can return to the Fengtian Temple on the same day." After Zhang Jue finished speaking, he arched his hand, turned around and left. Emperor Wen watched Zhang Jue leave, and in a fit of anger, he slapped his palm on the table, and his whole popularity kept trembling.
Zhong Xu was in the palace and didn't know that the white horse cavalry was coming, but for a while, the Dongyue offensive was obviously weaker, and he vaguely guessed that there were some changes outside the city, so he ordered people to continue to defend the palace.
Zeng Tianlin rushed to Jianye with all his strength with the battalion of martial arts, and Yuan Mutou, as the vanguard commander, came non-stop, and saw the traces of a large number of cavalry marching along the way and what the people on the road said, knowing that the white horse cavalry of the Gao family of Northern Qin was one step faster than them and had gone to Jianye. Yuan Mutou suddenly realized the complexity of the situation.
The government retreated to Jianye City, and in order to deal with the cavalry of the Gao family, Jianye City rejected horses and set traps one by one. Xiao Zhongqin and Ling Hui also returned to the city, and when Xuan Dong saw that the two were injured and learned that many people from the Jiuli clan had come, he suddenly felt that this time defending the city was more difficult than the previous siege. Then he asked the two to heal first, and it was going to be a tough battle.
After waiting for a long time, the cavalry and ten-day dry sergeants led by Ye Zheng, the dirty clothes Daoren, and Mo Buyu retreated to Jianye City first. The news brought by the three of them was even more shocking than that of Xiao Zhongqin and Ling Hui, black mist, unknown old man, twelve constant slaves, and wind evil. Hearing these Xuan Dong's hearts were shocked, the Gao family in White Horse City was also regarded as a Northern Qin clan, they stood together with Jiuli, plus the Zhang Jue in the city, it can be said that the Cefu is now in an extremely unfavorable situation. Looking at Emperor Wen again, the emperor's mind is difficult to fathom, Liu Yanzheng and Xiao Cheng have been staying in the Xuandong army after entering the city in Cefu, and they have not gone to Emperor Wen to drive, most of them are also disheartened.
After waiting for a while, Mo Liu and a group of cavalry withdrew, followed by a large group of white horse cavalry not far behind. Seeing this, Xuan Dong ordered the heavy shield sergeants and crossbowmen to go out of the city, and as long as the white horse cavalry entered the firing range, they would shoot crossbows to block. The two teams of sergeants immediately went out of battle and stood in formation after rejecting their horses. The cavalry led by Mo Liu quickly passed through the rejection horse and entered the city, and the white horse cavalry saw that Mo Liu had withdrawn to Jianye, and saw that the soldiers of Youce Mansion were assembled after the rejection of the horse, so they no longer chased after them.
After Gao Huan bandaged, half of his face was covered, he slowly walked out of the white horse cavalry formation, looked at the wall of Jianye City, he stuck his silver spear heavily on the ground, and ordered: "The whole army is stationed on the spot." ”
After the Gao family's tent was built one by one, Feng Xie, Liu Shang, Qianxi, and Gehu came to Gao Huan's big tent, Gao Huan's anger was still there at the moment, and when Feng Xie saw Gao Huan's injured face, he stepped forward and took out a bottle of plaster, and said lightly: "Family master, this is the healing ointment in my clan, which has a miraculous effect on wound healing." When Gao Huan saw the plaster, he was overjoyed and hurriedly asked people to put it away. Then they sat down and discussed how to deal with the East Vietnamese defenders in the city.
Feng Xie had already learned from Liu Shang that Emperor Wen was willing to cooperate with Jiuli, but he didn't plan to tell Gao Huan everything, so he said simply: "Family master, there are people from Jiuli in the city, and I believe that it is not difficult to break the construction industry in and outside, but there are some things that must be said in advance." ”
Gao Huan expected that Jiuli would definitely have a request, and the purpose of his coming to Jianye was only to obtain the greatest benefits, so he replied: "Mr. Feng, you can just say it." ”
"Okay, join forces to capture Jianye and eliminate the most elite army in East Vietnam, but not occupy Jianye, and cede part of the territory where the two countries meet, and the head of the family can make a request." The wind heresy was extremely calm, after Gao Huan heard it, he thought about it, he ordered someone to take out the map, and pointed it with a sword in the area of Misukou and Jiujiang Port.
